Improved Detection for Advanced Polymorphic Malware by James B. Fraley A Dissertation Proposal submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Information Assurance College of Engineering and Computing Nova Southeastern University 2017 ii An Abstract of a Dissertation Submitted to Nova Southeastern University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Improved Detection for Advanced Polymorphic Malware by James B. Fraley May 2017 Malicious Software (malware) attacks across the internet are increasing at an alarming rate. Cyber-attacks have become increasingly more sophisticated and targeted. These targeted attacks are aimed at compromising networks, stealing personal financial information and removing sensitive data or disrupting operations. Current malware detection approaches work well for previously known signatures. However, malware developers utilize techniques to mutate and change software properties (signatures) to avoid and evade detection. Polymorphic malware is practically undetectable with signature-based defensive technologies. Today’s effective detection rate for polymorphic malware detection ranges from 68.75% to 81.25%. New techniques are needed to improve malware detection rates. Improved detection of polymorphic malware can only be accomplished by extracting features beyond the signature realm. Targeted detection for polymorphic malware must rely upon extracting key features and characteristics for advanced analysis. Traditionally, malware researchers have relied on limited dimensional features such as behavior (dynamic) or source/execution code analysis (static). This study’s focus was to extract and evaluate a limited set of multidimensional topological data in order to improve detection for polymorphic malware. This study used multidimensional analysis (file properties, static and dynamic analysis) with machine learning algorithms to improve malware detection. This research demonstrated improved polymorphic malware detection can be achieved with machine learning. This study conducted a number of experiments using a standard experimental testing protocol. This study utilized three advanced algorithms (Metabagging (MB), Instance Based k-Means (IBk) and Deep Learning Multi-Layer Perceptron) with a limited set of multidimensional data. Experimental results delivered detection results above 99.43%. In addition, the experiments delivered near zero false positives. The study’s approach was based on single case experimental design, a well-accepted protocol for progressive testing. The study constructed a prototype to automate feature extraction, assemble files for analysis, and analyze results through multiple clustering algorithms. The study performed an evaluation of large malware sample datasets to understand effectiveness across a wide range of malware. The study developed an integrated framework which automated feature extraction for multidimensional analysis. The feature extraction framework consisted of four modules: 1) a pre-process module that extracts and generates topological features based on static analysis of machine code and file characteristics, 2) a behavioral analysis module that extracts behavioral characteristics based on file execution (dynamic analysis), 3) an input file construction and submission module, and 4) a machine learning module that employs various advanced algorithms. As with most studies, careful attention was paid to false positive and false negative rates which reduce their overall detection accuracy and effectiveness. This study provided a novel approach to expand the malware body of knowledge and improve the detection for polymorphic malware targeting Microsoft operating systems. Acknowledgments I would like to thank Professor James Cannady for providing guidance and leadership as the Chair of my dissertation committee. His brutal honesty has made me a better student and person. I will always look back fondly on his instruction, guidance and wisdom. I also want to thank Dr. Hughes and Dr. Liu for working diligently on my committee. Your comments and feedback served to build a better end-product and researcher. I also want to thank Dr. Ackerman and Dr. Seagull who provided guidance and inspiration early on in the process. I would also like to thank David Wasson who provided technical guidance and helped me build an infrastructure to process literally hundreds of experimental models. He provided a sound technical advice and allowed me to test ideas that neither of us had ever tackled. Some for good reason. I am grateful that he took my calls and provided technical insights when things broke. He helped me breakthrough by answering questions, giving up his time and providing technical expertise when it was desperately needed. I am very appreciative of my employer both McAfee and Intel. My journey was only made possible by the company’s support and encouragement. McAfee has been exceptionally supportive, and I have appreciated the support from my senior management.

  • Cert-IST 2008 Flaws and Attacks Review
    Cert-IST 2008 flaws and attacks review 1) Introduction Every year, the Cert-IST makes a review of the past year. The goal is to cover the major events of 2008 in order to highlight the trends regarding attacks and threats evolution. This summary presents a synthesis of the information sent to Cert-IST adherents members during months through the Cert-IST bulletins, on which we go through on this occasion. Some figures In 2008 the Cert-IST released 563 new security advisories and monitored their evolution through 1330 updates (among which 82 major updates). The raw advisory production was therefore slightly decreasing compared to the year 2007 (595 advisories) being still higher than the previous years (546 advisories in 2006, 485 in 2005, etc.). On these 563 vulnerabilities, 13 moved towards very dangerous situations and have been monitored in a specific way through the Cert-IST "Crisis Response Hub". At the end, the Cert-IST issued 2 alerts for threats of maximum risk that required an immediate treatment inside our constituency: • The CERT-IST/AL-2008.001 alert in July for the DNS vulnerability • The CERT-IST/AL-2008.002 alert in November for the Conficker (Downadup) worm Globally, the Cert-IST monitors vulnerabilities regarding approximately 739 products and 6194 product versions. Major events First of all, let’s review the major trends of the year 2008 : • Workstation attacks through compromised web sites. The beginning of the year clearly showed an increase of the attacks targeting the user. More than the web browser or the operating system, it is rather vulnerabilities discovered in third-party software (QuickTime, Acrobat Reader, Real Media, Flash) which are used to compromise the user’s system during Internet browsing.

Ryan BA, MA, MPICT, MCSSD This thesis is submitted in partial fulfilment for the degree of Doctor of Cyber Security School of Engineering and Information Technology, The University of New South Wales at the Australian Defence Force Academy 20 December 2019 Surname : Ryan Given Name : Matthew Abbreviation for degree : DCybSec - Doctor of Cyber Security (Research) Faculty : UNSW Canberra School : Engineering and Information Technology (SEIT) The ransomware revolution: how emerging encryption technologies created a Thesis Title : prodigious cyber threat Abstract The increasing public availability of encryption technologies, and the parallel emergence of cryptocurrencies, have elevated ransomware to become the most prodigious cyber threat that enterprises now confront. The advent of cryptocurrencies provided the catalyst for increased profitability from ransomware, sparking a phenomenal rise in the number and complexity of ransomware attacks. This thesis is among the first academic works to analyse what has been dubbed the ‘ransomware revolution’ after a series of major attacks beginning in 2013. This threat is compounded by a disconnect between academia, the professional services industry, and vendors. This research brings together two strands of analysis. First, it documents the emergence of encryption-centric technologies that have created an environment conducive to undertaking this type of cyber-attack. The ease of public access to advanced encryption techniques has allowed malicious actors to operate with increased anonymity across the internet. This has enabled increased collaboration between attackers, which has aided the development of new ransomware attacks, and led to an increasing level of technical complexity in ransomware attacks.

Malware creation showed no sign of slowing down, as shown by the fact that in 2012 we detected a record-high 27 million new malware strains at the laboratory, at an average of 74,000 new samples per day. In addition, cyber-attacks against multinational corporations continued to increase, with victims ranging from companies in the video game industry (Blizzard) to auto giants (Nissan). We also analyze the most important events in the mobile phone industry. As Android’s market share continues to grow, the motivation for cyber-crooks to target the platform also increases. The report also covers how social media (Facebook especially) was used by cyber-criminals to spread malware by making use of social engineering techniques. Furthermore, we take a look at the largest Mac infection to date and its consequences. 2012 has seen some remarkable events in the cyber-war/cyber-espionage arena, with Flame grabbing headlines. We analyze this and other attacks that took place in the Middle East. Summing up, this report recaps the major computer security events that occurred in 2012, and forecasts future trends for 2013.
